The Paso Doble originates from the South of France where bullfighting is also popular. The name Paso Doble is Spanish for "Two-Step." It was a style of march music that was popular at the turn of the century. Marches were synonymous with the two-step at that time. Though the dance is in no way similar to the American Two-Step that shares a common name/period of evolution.
A example of evidence to back this statement are the steps commonly known as Sur Place which is French for "on the spot" because it is a march in place or Appel which is French for "call" meaning to call attention.
